CHICAGO, Nov. 3.-August Spies,
Samuel Fielden and Nicholas Schwab
signed petition this afternoon humbly
begging the governor to commute
their sentences. These three of the
seven condemned men are the only
ones who have not written letters to
the governor that they would not ac-
cept communications of their sentences,
and that all efforts in that direction
were without their sanction. The sig
natures of Fielden and Schwab were

prisoners at the jail, and had private
conference with them. All sorts of
entreaties were adopted to get Spies to

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-Fourth Au-
ditor Shelley in his annual report to the
secretary of the treasury, shows the
financial operations of the United
States navy during the fiscal year end
ing June 80, 1887, as follows: Amount
appropriated, S38, 168 ,596; drawn out by
warrants, els, ISL ,136; balance on hand,
So, 500, 423. Expended, as shown by
vouchers, 4.S94 ,291; amount overpaid,
S28, 301; carried to the surplus fund,
S416, OS7. During the year 81 ,124 ,I95
was paid out on account of 6, l98 navy
pensioners. The auditor objected to
TIE system by which disbursing officers
are allowed to pay out large sums on
contracts before the bills have been
audited, and suggests that steps be
taken to have all amounts for pay
ments under contracts in the navy pre-
scented to his Office for settlement, and
that payments by disbursing officers be
restricted to necessary current eX-
penses, such as the pay of officers and
men and supplies needed for imme
date use, expenditures on ship-board
and purchases in foreign parts.

Police OpInlOns.

OAACO
CHICAGO, Nov. 5,-NoW that there
seems to be stampede in the direction
of communication of sentence of the
convicted anarchists it may be well
to mention what the effect of it has
already been in very important
section of the community, in the
police force. Already a feeling akin
to dismay has arisen among the blue
coats. A veteran officer voiced the
morning when he said: IF
these men are allowed to
triumph over the law through
meddlesome intervention of people to
save whose lives and property we
.risked our own on that awful night of
May 4, you will find that the police
force of Chicago will never fight an
other battle with Chicago anarchists.
It is all very well to say that it is a ter
rlble thing to take seven human lives,
but I say it is not more terrible than
the way in which they took the lives of
seven of our boys and MANNED dozens
Of them that May evening. But sup
pose the life of police officer is moth
ing when weighed against that of an
anarchist. / suppose it is our duty to
be butchered. in defense of the COM
munity and receive no protection
from that community. l say no pro-
lection, for the only protection we
can receive is a fitting punishment
Of those offenders whom we have
brought to bay. 1t is all right for the
judges to say that these men will preach
their doctrines more eloQuently dead
than alive, but tell you if they escape
the galloWS the doctrines Of the anarch-
lists viii be preached SO eloquently tn at
those who took part in obtaining a
Communication will live to be sorry they
did 80. For our part the police of Chi
cago will be more cautious in risking
their lives and facing anarchist
bombs than they were a year ago last
May If all the mercy and no Justice
doctrine is to prevail. and the discon-
tent it is believed will soon find some
strong public expression.

Railway building.

CHICAGO, Nov. 3.-The Railway Age
of tomorrow will say: During the last
few months the work of railway build
ing has been going on in the United
States at a rate never before equalled.
The great prosperity of the country
and the tendency to migrate into new
and undeveloped regions have en-
couraged the great railway companies
to push forward an enormous amount
of new mileage, in order to anticipate
or keep up with a similar enterprise on
the part of their competitors. From
January LIST to November 1st, 274 roads
have laid total of 9,408 miles of
track. More track has been laid so far
this year than in the year of 1886, and
exceeds the record of all other years in
the history of this or any other country.
The greatest activity has been exhibited
in a broad belt west of the Missouri
river stretching from Dakota and Mon
tana south to the Gulf. Kansas con-
tinues as last year, far in the lead,
showing already an addition of at least
1880 miles since the year began. Ne
braska follows next with q report of
S67 miles, Texas with S34 miles, Colo
RADIO with S18 miles and Dakota with
$50 miles. These four states and one
territory already having added 4,79S
miles of new railway, or more than

OH Producers, Shue D0wn.


PITTSBURG, Nov. 1.-Concerning the
ducers which goes into effect to-day,
the Oil City Derrick this morning says:
The most important deal ever con-
sumnated in the history of the oil bust
ness was brought to head at late
hour last night. The executive and
advisory boards of the Producers Pro-
tective Association held two sessions at
Arlington yesterday and last night,
was completed in every detail, and the
shut down or shut in, will go into eff
feet to-day. The Derrick makes the
announcement, by the authority of the
two boards, that all contracts were Of
ficially signed and nothing remains to
be done but to carry out the
provisions of the contracts. What
these contracts are, has not been
officially stated, but they contemplate
duction based on the gauges of wells
during July and August, the entire
stoppage of the drill for the same
length of time. No glycerine is to be
used during the same time and no
wells are to be cleaned out. The gen.
eral feature of the plan is that the
Standard Oil Company has sent out 81

barrel. The profits on this is to be
divided among those producers who
shut in their wells and comply with
all terms of the contracts. In ad-
dition to this the Standard and
the producers have made pool of g.
DOC. 900 barrels, the profits accruing
from which is to create a wage fund
for laboring men thrown out of employ
ment. Advices from the producing

there would be general shut down in
augurated to-day. That Mr.. Phillips,
of the Prolific pool, in Butler county, is
to be completely bridled in regard to
the Saximburg purchases, made yester-
day of the Gusher property, may be
taken as an indication that the Pro-
ducers Protective Association may be
able in a measure to control that field,
which is the only one not absolutely
controlled by the association. All big
producing firms, both the Standard and
INDEPENDENT, will shut in their wells.
